Liganded silver and gold quantum clusters. Towards a new class of nonlinear optical nanomaterials (SpringerBriefs in Materials),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Metallic quantum clusters belonging to intermediate size regime between two and few hundred of atoms, represent unique building blocks of new materials. Nonlinear optical (NLO) characteristics of liganded silver and gold quantum clusters reveal remarkable features which can be tuned by size, structure and composition. The twophoton absorption cross sections of liganded noble metal quantum clusters are several orders of magnitude larger than that of commerciallyavailable dyes. Therefore, the fundamental photophysical understanding of those twophoton processes in liganded clusters with few metal atoms deserve special attention, in particularly in context of finding the mechanisms responsible for these properties. A broad range of stateoftheart experimental methods to determine nonlinear optical properties (i.e. twophoton absorption, twophoton excited fluorescence and second harmonic generation) of quantum clusters are presented. The experimental setup and underlying physical concepts are described.Furthermore, the theoretical models and corresponding approaches are used allowing to explain the experimental observations and simultaneously offering the possibility to deduce the key factors necessary to design new classes of nanoclusters with large NLO properties. Additionally, selected studied cases of liganded silver and gold quantum clusters with focus on their NLO properties will be presented as promising candidates for applications in imaging techniques such as fluorescence microscopy or SecondHarmonic Generation microscopy.
By changing our most important processes and
products, we have already made a big leap forward. This ranges from the
increased use of more sustainable fibers to the use of more
environmentally friendly printing processes to the development of
efficient waste management in our value chain.
